Oaty Biscuits, 1p a serving, Meal Plan 1

Very, very variable recipe, much, much too moreish – and although they are only 1p a biscuit, could make it not frugal as they get scoffed too quickly especially warm and delicious straight from the oven mmmmm

Oat Biscuits

200g self raising flour

200g porridge oats

200g sugar

200g veg oil

2 tbsp hot water

Mix everything together very well.

Make walnut sized pieces and bake on greased baking trays at 180C fan for 15 minutes. You can either leave them walnut shaped, or flatten them out to biscuit shape

I find them much too moreish and have to lock them in a tin 🙂

Just made some of these (and sneaked one still warm from the oven) GORGEOUS! Added lemon zest, a little lemon juice and some cinnamon, got away with the extra liquid as my flour was overly dry anyway. This made loads too!

Have some in the tin right now, and trying not to have any. They are scrummy! Good luck with your fund raiser

Hello,

Are “porridge oats” what we in the States call “old-fashioned” or “rolled” oats? (I’m assuming they’re NOT steel-cut oats aka Irish oatmeal in the States), but please correct me if I’m wrong.

Hope you had a Merry Christmas! I’m enjoying reading your many clever ideas for Christmas leftovers; that soup for leftover day 1 looks delicious!

Yes, that’s right. Not steel cut oats. They are the rolled oats

I’m still eating that soup, taking it out of the freezer, working through that stash!

We had a lovely Christmas, I love all that family time., makes me feel all warm and fuzzy

Just made these and they are delicious. Seems like a lot of oil though (200g). They are really crumbly and sweet (my sweet tooth loves you!). They may not last the week… LOL
